What is Rickie’s Corner?
I will be updating this page with Rockford Scanner information and other misc stuff as well.
So be sure to check this page often

Update: March 30th 2017

We had some issues with the website and I was not able to update the pages. It took a long time to fix. But I am proud to say that issue is finally fixed! We will be updating the pages once again.

I been trying to make the website more responsive and user friendly. I took out one of the menus on top and also put a lot of the links in the main menu, into dropdown options in the menu on top. So the website loads faster. I do not personally think it is user friendly though, because of not seeing the links you may not be aware they are there. So I am in the process of trying to figure a way to make the links visible via a different method. I am still working on that.

The front page, I took a lot of the content off of there. And made it more responsive and load times faster. I also made the front page load the first 10 articles, instead of 20. This way it loads faster as well. To view past the 10th article, just click on the “older posts” button.

Plan on editing more pages here shortly.

RS android app. still in beta, hope to get more feedback from users to make sure things are good before making it go live. It is free, so be sure to download it from the google play store!

I fixed an issue where our posts were being double posted to our Twitter page. It now only posts one time, it does not double post anymore. I want to thank everyone who gave me heads up on this! Much appreciated. It took a little bit to troubleshoot, but once I found the source it was a quick fix 🙂
